Amrut Portonova Single Malt Whisky

Details

The history of Amrut Distilleries is as old as the history of independent India itself. Indeed, just as India is now noted as one of the worlds leading economies, so too is Amrut Distilleries an industry leader. In 1948, as India was taking its place as an independent nation, Amrut Distilleries entered the field of liquor making, with an initial investment of a few lakhs. Todays success has been made possible by the resolve of successive generations of the Jagdale family to embrace value and quality.

Tasting Notes

Nose: A Thick pudding of a nose; fruit and caramel have merged into one slightly over-oaked soup; burnt apple pie;

Taste: This is essentially a port pipe sandwich…. and it shows. Th spicy, jammy fruit is interwoven through any amount of caramel while the oaky saltiness gets the taste buds both salivating and puckering until you run dry;

Finish: Long, massive oak with quite evident traces of the virgin barrels now detectable. And more of a cocoa hue as it progresses. At last some muscovado sugars arrive to supplant the berry fruits;
